1．Dear Sharon Draper，
A lot of books have flashes of insight，but only few of them can open the readers'mind and make them realize something new．Your book，Out of My Mind，filled me with those sparks．I enjoyed getting to know Melody．Despite the fact that she had cerebral palsy（腦癱），Melody had an amazing character that shone brightly．Out of My Mind helped me learn a life-long lesson．
Your book has changed my point of view．I never teased those who had special needs，but I never really felt comfortable around them either．When I started reading your novel，I saw how Melody was a smart and talented girl．At the beginning of the book，I asked myself，"Would I be Melody's friend？"The voice in my stomach told me the sad truth：no．I carried on with your book from start to finish，and when I closed it，I asked myself the same question，"Would I be Melody's friend？"I realized，with a smile，that the answer was right in front of me．Throughout Out of My Mind，I had become Melody's friend．
Last year，there was a boy in my class who had Asperger's syndrome（阿斯伯格綜合癥）．I didn't really know him； he just seemed different to me．This was around the time that I read your novel．Melody showed me how she was just as good as anyone else in her classroom and how the same goes for anyone else with disabilities．The boy in my class amazed me by what he was capable of doing．As the days went by，I started helping him instead of avoiding him．
Melody opened my eyes and cleared the world around me．She showed me how a girl with cerebral palsy was the same as a girl like me．Now it is time for me to thank you for writing this amazing novel．I will never forget your fantastic book．
Sincerely，
Margaret Lim

5．Although many companies offer tuition reimbursement（償付），most companies reimburse employees only for classes that are relevant to their positions．This is a very limiting policy．A company that reimburses employees for all college credit course-whether job related or not-offers a service onot only to the employees，but to the entire company．
One good reason for giving employees unconditional tuition reimbursement is that it shows the company's dedication to its employees．In today's economy，where job security is a thing of the past and employees feel more and more expendable，it is important for a company to demonstrate to its employees that it cares．The best way to do this is to make investments in them．
In return，this dedication to the betterment of company employees will create greater employee loyalty．A company that puts out funds to pay for the education of its employees will get its money back by having employees stay with the company longer．It will reduce employ turnover（流動(dòng)），because even employees who don't take advantage of tuition reimbursement program will be more loyal to their company，just knowing that their company cares enough to pay their education．
Most importantly，the company that has an unrestricted tuition reimbursement program will have higher quality employees．Although these companies do indeed run the risk of losing money on employees who go on to another job in a different company as soon as they get their degree，more often than not，the employees will stay with the company．And even if employees do leave after graduation，it generally takes several years to complete any degree program．Thus，even if the employee leaves upon graduating，throughout those years，the employer will have a more sophisticated，more intelligent，and therefore more valuable and productive employee．And，if the employee stays，that education will doubly benefit the company：Not only is the employee more educated，but now that employee can be promoted so the company doesn't have to fill a high-level vacancy from the outside．Open positions can be filled by people who already know the company well．
Though unconditional tuition reimbursement requires a significant investment on the employer's part，it is perhaps one of the wisest investments a company can make．

（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS．）

78．According to the passage，what is unrestricted tuition reimbursement？
To reimburse/Reimburse employees for all college credit courses
79．A company gives employees unconditional tuition reimbursement in order toshow the company's dedication to its employees．
80．Two most important results of unconditional tuition reimbursement are that the companies will probablycreate greater employee loyalty and have higher quality employees．
81．If the employee stays after graduation，he will bring the company more benefits becausehe is more educated and fit for a high-level vacancy．

11．A．How to deal with listening practice
B．Class atmosphere matters a lot in learning
C．Monitoring activities is one of the main tasks of teachers
D．How to evaluate student performance
E．Group work needs organizing properly
F．Communication skills play a big role in language learning

Both instructors and learners can get benefits from the following learning strategies as long as they are properly made use of in language learning．
61．F．
The information presented in this section focuses on specific conversation，discussion，or presentation skills．The activities arc generally self-explanatory，with students expressing opinions，making decisions，solving problems，planning presentations，and so on．Engaged in these activities，students have the possibility of communicating with each other in class．This section also includes lists of expressions used to illustrate different language functions，such as agreeing，disagreeing，and asking for clarity in order to help students expand their knowledge of English．
62．B．
in a speaking or listening course，students'anxieties can affect their learning．For this reason，it is important to establish a friendly，relaxed classroom environment．It may help students 10 think of the classroom as a laboratory where they can experiment and take risks with the language．In such circumstances，students should realize that errors are a natural and expected part of learning a language．In addition，one of the goals of this pan is to encourage students to examine their awn opinions and values while at the same time showing respect for the opinions and values of others．
63．E．
Many of the activities in this section involve the students'cooperating work in class．Generally，such an activity taken up by four members seem to work the best．Groups of three or five members may also be effective，depending on the activity．The first unit includes guidelines for organizing group work，with students taking on the following roles：leader，reader，summarizer，reporter，and observer（if necessary）．Organizing all activities in this way makes the course truly learner-centered since students must take fall responsibility for carrying out each activity．As for seating，group members should arrange their seats or chairs in a small circle to encourage interaction．
64．C．
Being a teacher，in the course of group activities，you should circulate from group to group，which helps ensure that students are on task and are using English．While you should not participate in pair or group activities，you need to stay involved in what the students are doing．One important reason to circulate during activities is to keep track of the kinds of problems students have，such as grammatical accuracy，fluency，word choice，pronunciation and intonation discussion strategies，etc．However，it is generally not effective to correct students'errors when they arc involved in an activity The most practical way to deal with communication problems is to make notes of what you observe as you arc circulating．You can then use this information to provide feedback after the activity or to develop future lessons．
65．D．
At the beginning of the course，when they need to build up their confidence，students benefit most from encouragement and positive comment．If possible，you'd rather not grade the students fust few efforts at speaking in a group or to the class．Many students suffer such anxiety in speaking situations that any criticism at this stage can have the opposite effects．Commenting on students'work does not necessarily mean grading them on the scene Even if the programs requires formal grades，you should try to put off assigning grades until later in the term．
